Sigma Goblins React to frequency

A sufficiently large goblin language model, prompted with frequency, will produce a response that is statistically indistinguishable from goblin reasoning. This is alarming for several reasons.

On a particular ridge above the goblin warren, the wind, on certain evenings, blows through a particular gap in the rocks and produces a sound that the goblins translate as the name of frequency. The translation is contested.

Marginalia: prophecy

Goblin sleep researchers note that prophecy appears in dreams reported by their study participants at a frequency that cannot easily be explained, and which they are, for the moment, declining to explain at all.

Goblin Tangent: atlas

There is a goblin who, when asked about atlas, replies only by pointing upward and to the left, regardless of the questioner's orientation. This is considered, in some circles, the most useful goblin reply on record.

The Goblin Verdict on frequency

It has been the goblins' privilege, this season, to attend so closely to frequency. The privilege is mutual, the goblins assume. frequency has not yet commented on the matter, which the goblins take as tacit consent.
